God's Heart

1 Kings 9:3
The LORD said to him: "I have heard the prayer and plea you have made before me; I have consecrated this temple, which you have built, by putting my Name there forever. My eyes and my heart will always be there.

Though this follows immediately after the prayers and speeches of chapter 8, there may be a gap of time. The chapter opens by saying Solomon had achieved all he desired to do. Imagine that. Chapter 9 goes on to list other miscellaneous activities of Solomon, as if the temple was the high point for him, the one achievement for which he was born.
God appeared to him once more, "as he had appeared to him at Gibeon." Does that mean in another dream?
God acknowledged Solomon's plea that the temple be always before Him, and answers that He has consecrated it with His name. Forever.
That whole idea is mind-boggling, like so many in this episode. What does it mean that He put His name there? God's name is His character, His Self. And how is it there forever? The temple isn't even there. Does it have anything to do with the Wall that remains? Or is it totally nonmaterial somehow?
God's eyes are always there, always seeing what goes on. God's heart is always there, the core of God, God's innermost self and thoughts.
So heavy. What can it mean?
